Much like Salehe Bembury, Joe Freshgoods is has become one of the most recognized names in sneakers thanks to his ongoing partnership with New Balance. Together, the two parties have cooked up 992 “No Emotions Are Emotions” collab, 990v3 “Outside Voices” rendition and 90/60 “Inside Voices” team-ups, and now they will be shifting their focus to the 993 this Fall/Winter season.

After slightly teasing the three-pronged collection earlier this month, the Chicago native has now provided a closer look at the playful colorways. Each iteration comes fitted with a muted gray mesh base layer and soft coral shoe laces and allows its pastel suede overlays to do the heavy lifting. Spring/Summer-friendly pink, green and blue hues split amongst each offering and come accessorized with a hang tag that reads “performance art made to wear well. In addition, the midsoles of each pair come with a muted cream finish that adds a pre-worn aesthetic to them.

Peep a closer look at the collection in the gallery above and note that a release date will likely be announced in the coming weeks.
